Music trivia

Well, since I didn't know the answer to anyone elses, I'll start my own.

First question:

Who wrote the song "I'm a Believer" that the Monkees had a big hit with.

Let's treat this one like the movie thread. First correct answer gets to go next.

I have to assume it wasn't Michael Nesmith. That would be too easy...

I'll take a shot at Mick Jagger. Sounds like his stuff.

Then again...Carol King is always a possibillity...

Nope and nope, but your getting warmer. Did Carol King write any monkees songs?

No there wasn't, although it did seem that way.

Ok..if it wasn't Jagger but the guess was warmer, I have to jump to George Harrison.

Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!

We have a winnah.
A lot of people have seen him sing it, yet it never seems to occur to anyone that he wrote it.

Your up, Squigg-man.
